Honor 9 bricked ? is there a chance to get it working? - Honor 9 Questions & Answers

Hi @all
i have tried to rebrand my chinese Honor 9 to EU and it failed. Now my bootloader is locked.
Status:
PHONE: Locked
FRP: Lock
The phone can be recognized by fastboot. But if i try to unlock the phone with the unlock code, that i have from the official website with:
>fastboot oem unlock XXXXXXXXXXX
it says:
...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.031s
If i try to get into recovery, i just end up in eRecovery and there the phone is not able to download the image.
I have a HONOR 9, STF-AL00
Can anybody help me?
Is there a solution beside to try it with DC Phoenix to get the bootloader unlocked again?
Thank you in advance

Hi Rommco05, in the back of my mind i have already assumed, that this will be the only solution and i am already getting familiar with the thought to give DC Phoenix a try.
I just wanted to check if i maybe miss some information of getting rid of this problem with another way...

Bootloader can not be unlocked because FRP is locked and FRP can be unlocked only in EMUI

i don't know if i get you right? FRP is currently locked on my phone - so is DC Unlocker able to unlock FRP?
or is there a possibilty to unlock FRP with EMUI?

Rommco05 said:

check bootloader unlock status.
In your device, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.
Tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue if it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.
I think your bootloader cannot be unlocked.There is someway to unlock that type of bootloader but i cant remember now.Search it and reply please
But he says again. So I guess he had unlocked it then relocked it and now wants to unlock it again.

yeah bro. thats what i mean on my question. can you help me guys to figure it out?
Check on another computer.
Request unlock token again from Sony. It might have been corrupted.
Close antivirus software.
All of these
When you go to the service menu (*#*#7378423#*#*) and check the bootloader status, does it say "Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes" or does it say "Bootloader unlocked: Yes"?
If it is the second one it is already unlocked, and that's the only reason I can see it keep failing.

You need to try ;
-Try in another pc
-Connect phone to other usb port
-Reinstall adb and flashtool drivers
-Try with flashtool
We have tried plenty of ways around this today and can't figure out reason why it has done this

Cant unlock boot loader!

I was trying to unlock the bootloader of my phone and when i type fastboot oem unlock it shows me three dots "..." for hours.
Device : Micromax q324 (it is a spreadtrum 7731 device)
PC OS : Windows 8 64 bit
You can't unlock all bootloader like that. Really that only works on nexus devices and a few others without the oem unlocking it. If I'm not mistaken you need something from the oem for that device.
then how do i unlock bootloader for my device????

Contact the oem and see if there is a bootloader unlock method for the device.
Well i dont think that the indian customer representatives will know the meaning of bootloader

You would be wrong. That oem has other devices that it unlocks bootloader for, so they will at least know what it is and will tell you if it can be unlocked or not.
Understand that not all devices get an unlock for the bootloader. They don't want to do it.
I will contact oem tommorrow
Thnx for the assistance

[For newbie] FRP and Phone lock / unlocked explanation

Hi people!
I know, I'm completely newbie in this.
But I'm getting in trouble and confused about it.
The question is simple:
What's means FRP lock / unlocked and Phone lock / unlocked?
And what's the difference between them?
FRP means Factory Reset Protection. If locked your phone will be protected of unauthorized factory​ resets. If a stranger tries to reset your phone, the phone will ask for your Google password on startup.
So if you unlock FRP you will lose that protection but this is required too unlock your bootloader (that's what you called phone locked/unlocked).
Phone locked (bootloader locked) means that you cannot make any changes too the partitions of your phone for example the recovery. So you are required to unlock your phone to install custom recoveries and ROMs like TWRP or RR etc.
Hope I could help you clear some things up.
If you're planning to sell your Android phone, make sure to remove your Google account from it first or else the next owner wouldn't be able to use it.
FRP means Factory Reset Protection. If locked your phone will be protected of unauthorized factory​ resets. If a stranger tries to reset your phone, the phone will ask for your Google password on startup.

actory Reset Protection (FRP) is a security method that was designed to make sure someone can't just wipe and factory reset your phone if you've lost it or it was stolen. Starting with Android Lollipop, FRP is "standard" in vanilla Android, and most companies making our phones have implemented it in their own models.Mar 29, 2016

Hi everybody,
My question is going to sound stupid, but now that I've got the unlock code for the bootloader, how do I unlock the FRP?
It is to this part that I am lost.
Sorry but I'm not very young anymore and not healthy. I had a big car accident and am much more on my phone and my computer
Rommco05 said:
You need have enabled OEM unlock in Developer options for unlock FRP

Hi,
OK so I activate the OEM to unlock the FRP.
And for unlocking the Bootloader I can use Huawei Multi Tools?
Should I delete my Google Account or Huawei before doing these manipulations?
I do not have fingerprint or pattern lock.
Thanks in advance for your answers.

After unlocking bootloader on my phone fastboot appeared the inscription "PHONE Unlock" and "Unlock FPR". On my device sprosili settings. After that, I re-entered entered the Google account, but the phone then began to hang periodically. I went into developer mode, done a factory reset there. And decided to turn back. Went to fastboot, blocked Downloader. Phone rebooted, then on the screen appeared the inscription: "Relock PHONE" and "FPR Lock". Out of fastboot, there was a black window where it says to restore the system through recovery in the air, but when I try to do fails. Help me, please!

First you should try the HWOTA procedure without rebranding.

"The System has been Destroyed" after re-lock the bootloader

Dear all,
I bought Mi Pad 4 and it was running well, and I want to update the ROM. The device is comes with Locked bootloader.
I unlocked my Mi Pad 4 using MI Unlock. And when I try to relock it using "fastboot oem lock" command, it become suddenly comes with black screen with written: "The system has been destroyed. Press power button to shutdown".
So I entered the fastboot mode and try some command/solutions:
- My device status is locked:
E:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot oem device-info
...
(bootloader) Verity mode: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: true
OKAY [ 0.006s]
finished. total time: 0.006s
- I can't unlock it using Mi Unlock:
- Flashing using MiFlashalso not allowed since it is still locked:
- I tried to unlock using fastboot, also failed:
E:\adb>fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device
)
finished. total time: 0.003s
- The faastboot screen in my mi pad is only for around 10 Second. After that it goes to "The System has been Destroyed" stage...
Any help is appreciated, because I cant use it anymore...
Why did you even want to close the BL again?!? I dont understand anyone who does that.
And AFAIK you can flash an original Image from Xiaomi even with locked BL. But I have never done it and the guide shows a working phone..
http://en.miui.com/thread-835254-1-1.html
You need the Mi-Flash Tool. And these damn Indian people with their fake titles on youtube.. The title is english and the freaking video is hindi or whatever.. SO ANNOYING!!!
Hi, the tutorial you gave is for 'normal' xiaomi phone, where it boot normally (even its BL is locked).
In my case, I cant load the BL (It said: Destroyed). The only thing I can do is restart to fastboot state, and after 20 seconds it goes again to Destroyed state.
Ok, so I have read some other threads and what seems the "only" solution is to unlock the bootloader again.. But the other people had no problem running "oem unlock".. And you get an error, what is kinda strange.
What happens in MiUnlock? Error?
Hi, I think the main problem is current status is "The System has been Destroyed", therefore it cannot load the BL.
Meanwhile, the BL is in Locked status. So it need to be un-locked first, so I can load the new ROM.
MIUnlock is error, it said: "Current account is not bound to this device", which is strange, because previously I unlocked using it before.
I assume MIUnlock said this because the status of "System destroyed"...
Never lock if there is not 100% Xiaomi official rom inside, and better use MiFlash with "clean all and lock" option for locking.
Thanks for your suggestion. Will do that after I fix this problem..
I think you have a bricked device.. Some devices have this "test-pins", where you can enable some debug-bridge and there you could flash it (mi5 or redmi5 was that in that thread). I dont know if the Pad4 has such Pins and you would have to open the whole device.. (its not something you can access from the outside).
But I dont know if the Pad has these test-pins, just because another Xiaomi device had it..
Noted on that, but too risky for me to open the case..
Any other solution would be really appreciated.

On some devices you have to login your Mi Account with MiFlash when flashing in EDL mode and account needs special permissions.

Yup, and I cant do that since cannot load the BL, because it's "Destroyed" right now..
Up.
Does anyone have the solution on this?
Thanks.

The only solution was already posted several times -> open device, find test-pins, use them and flash ROM. And yet, you still ignore it everytime. THERE is no other solution for bricked devices.
And: NEVER close the bootloader again on NON official ROMs.
2 ways to try out...
1st run
"fastboot flashing unlock"
2nd
"fastboot oem reboot EDL"
Or this link if the command doesn't work
https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....e-how-to-reboot-to-edl-fastboot-t3394292/amp/
go to service centre they will be able to restore the device using edl i hope
I tried also all solutions, but nothing helped. EDL, fastboot, etc.
If there is a way to unlock the BL again I can go on. Otherwise there will be no chance for me to get it running.
Has anyone got a solution how I can unlock the BL again? Or flash with locked BL?
Thanks!

Looks like it is straightforward to remove the back cover. Perhaps you can find the EDL test points on the motherboard?

Is there no possibility to enable USB Debugging without entering the miui surface?

Edl with test points should work, try some different ones, maybe the ones you are trying are wrong

Honor v10 Bricked

hi guys , got big problem .
tried to get a stock phone ... so deactivated oem in settings then locked bootloader , phone started to bootloop. i know that this can happen if your bootloader is unlocked, strange thing is that in fastboot mode it states as phone relock und frp lock .
i tried dc phoenix and here result of checked bootloader : OEM lock state info:
FB LockState: LOCKED
USER LockState: RELOCKED
OEM get bootinfo:
unlocked
Oem shouldn't have been toggled.
Phone state will remain relocked after relocking the bootloader.
Try dload method with stock firmwares and see if it makes a difference. If not, boot to erecovery and download full firmware.
erecovery = getting package info failed
dload = software install failed
Isnt there any Chance repairing it?
