[FIXED] So I bricked Mate 10 lite - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

Hi,
Here is a long story of bricking my device, I wanted to downgrade my device from Oreo to Nougat, and somehow I installed wrong software, mine is RNE-L21 and after successful downgrade with this method:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3vqb8hPZIQ
version of software I installed: RNE-L21C461B153CUSTC461D001
my device was NEO-something, in settings it showed 3GB of RAM instead of 4GB, screen resolutution 1280x720 instead of fullHD and 32GB of internal memory instead of 64, so I wanted to change that.
This time I downloaded (not so sure about this now) proper version of firmware: RNE-L21C432B135CUSTC432D001, and used another method because previous method didnt work, link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76503686&postcount=46
the HuRUpdater scrpit worked fine, I booted up the device and nothing was changed, so I was like, well, ok then.
but then I noticed that my bootloader was locked, so I wanted to unlock it, and after typing the *fastboot oem unlock code* and selecting yes on my device, It rebooted and just stuck at the "Powered by andriod" logo.
I was trying to enter TWRP but id doesnt work, its stuck at the loading screen, I was unable to enter fastboot, but now I figured out that when I discharge it, I'm able to enter fastboot.
So now I'm stuck, I don't know what should I do.
I saw a guide for flashing .img files from UPDATE.APP, but that guide was for Oreo, and I've got diffrent .img files inside my Nougat UPDATE.APP so I don't want to risk:

you should format by using fastboot. First download your stock ROM and extract with Huawei Firmware Extracter. Select UPDATE.APP and extract following files:
erecovery_kernel.img
erecovery_ramdisk.img
erecovery_vbmeta.img
cust.img
erecovery_vendor.img
kernel.img
ramdisk.img
recovery_vbmeta.img
recovery_vendor.img
system.img
Reboot your device in to fastboot mode (recovery mode) and flash those files one by one:
fastboot flash erecovery_kernel erecovery_kernel.img
...
fastboot flash system system.img
//
Erase your userdata space:
fastboot -w
//reboot
fastboot reboot
Now go to your stock recovery and do factory reset, wide cache.
Now your device back to stock OREO

Any Ideas?
HOW I FIXED:
I downloaded this EMUI 5 Nougat, Thanks to bozka1:
https://androidhost.ru/5SZ
I extracted UPDATE.APP file using Huawei Update Extractor.
I was trying to flash everything via fastboot: BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img, RECOVERY2.img, CUST.img, SYSTEM.img but nothing helped me.
I found out what you can flash via fastboot here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/huawei-fastboot-commands-t3850123
There was no hope for me, so I tried to flash USERDATA.img
fastboot flash userdata USERDATA.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And then cmd promped something unusual:
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'userdata' (24576 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.646s]
writing 'userdata'...
(bootloader) success to erase cryypt info in oeminfo
OKAY [ 1.401s]
finished. total time: 2.049s
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then I proceeded to flash: BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img, RECOVERY2.img and CACHE.img
I didn't flash SYSTEM.img because I flashed it before like 1500 times.
My phone didn't work yet so I used the DLOAD method because RECOVERY finally worked, so I shut down the device and used three buttons combo:
First holding Volume Up, Volume Down and then pressing Power Button.
There is a documentation in the firmware I downloaded, SDcard must be in exFAT format.
Thank You bozka1.

So I'll have to wait a little before I'll download Service ROM, my internet connection isn't the greatest, but I flashed Your TWRP and unfortunately it doesn't work;
If I hold the Power button and Volume Up - the same story as before, I see the loading TWRP screen and nothing happends,
If I let the device to boot up and then press only the Volume Up button - it says "Your device is booting up" and nothing happens.
By the way, what can happen when I'll use "fastboot flash recovery something.img" instead of recovery2?
EDIT:
I did some testing and Your TWRP doesn't boot at all on my device, I flashed another one, Catuva21 3.1.1 Nougat, and that is the one that I had before - it is booting but never loads.

TWRP will automatically overwrite Stock recovery, it's impossible to flash something from dload without Stock recovery .
Using command "recovery2" you will install TWRP over eRecovery .
Try flash Service ROM from SD card without TWRP & oeminfo flashing, but Im not sure... your system is heavily damaged and incomplete .

So the phone would boot up the TWRP without pressing anything? Damn, I might have done that typo error... Do You know if I can restore the stock recovery from the UPDATE.APP file? I mean flash it

Use Huawei Update Extractor and extract RECOVERY.img , copy it to the "Minimal ADB and fastboot" folder . Command :
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img

Yeah, I've done it already, unfortunately nothing changed. How about BOOT.img? Can this influence something?
EDIT:
I also wonder about just following the steps in my first post, I've got UPDATE.APP for Oreo, but I don't know if it will only make it worse.

Do I have to install oeminfo to be able to use the "three buttons combo"? Because I tried it today and it doesn't work, phone is just stuck at "Your device is booting.." screen, guess I'm out of luck

Alright, so did it just happened randomly or did you tried to do something with your phone? Did you unlocked bootloader or flashed custom recovery etc? You need to explain what happened, that's quite important if you want someone to help you.

Bricked Honor 5X

Hi,
I have bricked my Honor 5x after flashing custom recovery. This these the steps I followed:
1) Unlocked the bootloader
2) Flashed TWRP recovery
3) Flashed root
4) Tried to update OTA
Now the phone is stuck at boot screen. I can enter recovery by pressing volume down and power, but now is stock recovery. And I don't know what to do.
Can someone help me?
OK u can't OTA update with twrp AND U SHOULD try adb flashing twrp through fastboot and maybe restoring a nandroid if u have one if not there's some u can download around here
Hey, my phone is bricked too. How did you manage to flash adb during twrp. How did you restore the backup and where did you get it from?
Or could someone please explain to me how I can get back to stock. I saw one thread with the .app file, but there you had to go the setting or something, which I can't do.
I have twrp installed and I have the L21 version.
Ok, I figured it out. I took the backup and the instructions from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/unrooted-stock-rom-t3308902

I was able to get my phone back to stock using the update.app file and the Huawei Update Extractor
Download stock firmware and extract the update.app file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/repository-honor-5x-file-depot-t3328288​
Download Huawei Update Extractor
http://d-h.st/wwfQ​
Use the Huawei Update Extractor to open the update.app file and extract system.img, Cust.img, boot.img, recovery.img
Copy the extracted files to your adb folder
Connect the phone to the PC in fastboot mode, to do this power off the phone hold Volume down and insert a usb cable connected to the PC
Type these commands on ADB:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot reboot​
After that you should be back on stock firmware
I tried to do that too. But the problem was that my adb didn't recognize my phone. Of course I had everything installed.
When I unlocked the bootloader earlier, it worked. But there I had to enable USB debugging. When my phone was broke, I couldn't enable it. Maybe that's why?
However, my phone is working right now, so thanks anyway.
fixed

I have a practically dead honor 5x, flashed a L-24 firmware on L-22. TWRP doesnt let me do anything, no touch functions work so i cannot restore my back up.
Fastboot commands on format /data and flash cust cust.img fail with the error "Remote: Command not allowed", bootloader is unlocked, pls help.....I need to flash back the default cust.img to get it back to normal
SOLVED: Downloaded the official firmware, placed the "dload" folder which contains the update.app in the root of the sd card, went into download mode on phone (vol up + vol dow + power) and the system installed the firmware automatically.....booted back into the stock system now, next will reflash TWRP and restore back up

Yes, it is working perfectly.
Hi, sorry for hijacking a thread but I thought it'd be better than making a new one.
I did pretty much the same as the OP, unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP recovery, rooted and then stupidly tried to do an official update on the phone (I believe it was kiw-l21c432b140)
The phone is just now stuck at the boot screen, I can get into fastboot mode but cannot use ADB, says device isn't found no matter what I try. I also tried putting stock firmware on the SD card and going into download mode (EMUI) but it just says software install failed.. Any help appreciated, only got the phone today and have spent longer trying to fix it than I have using it..
Thanks!

As long as you are able to boot into fastboot you still have hope
Are you able to get into TWRP? (Power + Vol up) If yes, download the L-21 stock rom in the file repository thread and flash it. In all likelihood, that will solve any corruption of system files. If not, read on.
Did you check if you have installed the ADB drivers? I am assuming it should have been installed considering you flashed TWRP, but better to check and reinstall. Device not found is usually a driver error. Alternatively, you can install HiSync, it refreshes and replaces the drivers needed for Honor 5X. Further to installing that, try adb fastboot commands and flash the stock recovery using the steps in this post:

When I do power and vol up I get EMUI recovery, not TWRP I put the stock rom on the SD card and tried to install it and it just says "Software install failed" and the only option is to shut the phone down again.
I had all the ADB drivers installed, will reinstall it all and see if it helps. When I run adb now and use the "adb devices" command it just says "List of devices attached" and doesn't show anything..

Oh then you have stock recovery, are you using the update.app provided by Huawei? Or using any ROMs/images posted here? It is possible that you may have a corrupted download, look up the Huawei site for downloads in the support section for your region and download the official update.app, try with that

It wasn't stock recovery before, after the phone updated it went back to stock and wouldn't boot. I downloaded the firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/stock-kiw-l24-l21-t3312684 and that's what I try to install through recovery and it says there's an error, a load of other texts flashes up before it says error but it's too quick to read. When I have better internet I'll re-download it in case it was corrupt. Thanks for your help, hopefully I can get it fixed as I only just got this to replace my old phone. Would be a shame to spend the money on it and have no use from the device.. Just wish the computer would detect through adb as I can get into fastboot easily enough.

Sure, we all help each other
BTW, just to be sure, you using the single "Update.app" file, that runs into a couple of gigs or the extracted one? You can't flash extracted Update.app through stock recovery.
HiSync (the official Huawei tool) also provides an option to recover the phone, tried that?

It's the single one, about 2.66GB I believe, I tried the recovering through the Huawei tool and it says "Your device is not supported for system recovery".

Oops! I am no techie, so am at the end of my wits, but thing I do suspect is a corrupted download, so if you can try downloading the file again from a stable connection and try is all I can think of. I've had this corrupted file thing quite a few times, so suggesting.

Stuck in TWRP

Hey,
I wanted to do a nandroid backup so I did adb reboot recovery to go to TWRP, now I can't boot into system, I'm stuck in twrp, I can't even power off the phone it keeps booting up again and again. Please help i'm really lost. Thanks
I did boot to System but with another key combinaison (volume down + power) , I think it's all messed up and the phone thinks that the recovery is the default boot option.. idk how to change this

If you can reach the stock recovery, just put update.app file and install it. If you can't, try to flash boot.img and recovery.img manually. After that, try to install rom again.

Okay follow these step, if you don't understand any step ask again. But follow these:
Download the UPDATE.APP of the Build number you were on before.
Extract system.img, boot.img, recovery.img, cust.img from that UPDATE.APP
Flash all these files via bootloader mode, to boot into bootloader mode, once a loop is over and you see blank screen on your phone, quickly press Vol DOWN button and while pressing it connect your phone to a PC. If this doesn't work and you get into recovery, then in recovery go to option Reboot, in that select Bootloader.
Once in bootloader mode, flash these files by firing these commands from a CMD, make sure files are situated in the same location where you open up the CMD.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Now after your phone boots up normally, put the same UPDATE.APP from which these files were extracted in dload folder of your external SDcard.
Now switch off your phone and press all the three buttons(Vol UP + Vol DOWN + Power) simultaneously.
Flashing process will start.
Hope this helps.

@DigiGoon No need to flash system.img actually Just cust, boot and recovery is enough (i think). I forgot to tell cust but it's not necessary always.

I'm having similar problem as OP. I get access to TWRP(by holding power+vol up), but not fastboot anymore. My TWRP is in chinese and but I found the reboot menu and the alternatives are: System, Power Off, Recovery and Download. I think i've tried them all and none of them brings me fastboot. I went into loop when I tried to install SuperSu through TWRP on stock rom. Is there hope? Yesterday I managed to get into fastboot, but can't remember what I did. I heard something about draining the battery and then theres hope?

Several options you got:
Install older SuperSU. I remember I had the same thing and the only way was to downgrade SuperSU. 2.5x, I think.
Try to access fastboot - turn off phone, keep vol- pressed and power up. Release vol- when you see fastboot screen. Try it with and without USB PC connection.
Try to deplete your battery. It works in other devices as after charging again, boot.img behaves differently. Don't ask me why, but if the phone charges as it is, no harm in trying.
Wipe all partitions - Dalvik, cache, data, internal storage and system. And then install a custom ROM from sdcard or USB-OTG. You can access H7 content from PC, through USB, while in TWRP.
Huawei eRecovery
I got into Huawei eRecovery EMUI, but when I try to "Download latest version and recovery" and connect to wifi it fails:"Getting package info failed". The other options are Reboot and Shutdown. Could this be useful?
Another question how to transfer to sd-card when in twrp. The phone is detected in windows as MTP thingy, but in adb shell no devices is found... I'm too noob for this.
Got into fastboot mode, and flashed all the imgs except system.img where I get error "cannot load"... Got the ADB drivers now, but still adb shell finds no devices. It appears that my TWRP is gone, and instead I get Huawei eRecovery. So my problem now is that I dont get system.img flashed, still stuck at honor-logo, and can't push files with adb, I get "no devices". Any tips?
Got it now, thank you very much! But what's the point in doing the last steps with dload when everything seems to be good?

Please share your solution with others, so that your post can be referred.
Doing a forced updated (dload) gives the absolute assurance you flashed all the partitions correctly with all the *.img compressed files in the update.app file.

When you flash the partitions manually, we are not flashing all of them, only some of them, and some partitions are not in regular img format, so by doing the three button update we can put all the partitions in their respective places.
Another benefit of doing force update is that if you don't know your build number and flashed system.img, cust.img etc of some other build then by doing a force update all the img files of same build are flashed.

Stuck on "Powered by ANdroid". No recovery, only fastboot & rescue mode.

Stuck on "Powered by ANdroid". No recovery, only fastboot & rescue mode.
Hello,
I have Honor 7 PLK-UL00, and it is stuck on "Powered by Android" screen. The bootloader is unlocked. I can only go into fastboot or rescue mode. I cannot enter recovery or erecovery mode. I have tried flashing img files through fastboot of Android 6.0 B360, Android 5 B130 and Android 5 B788 but still no luck . The only option that seems left to me is flashing zip through fastboot. Does anybody here have the zip of stock or custom rom that i can flash through fastboot or anybody help me in making the zip.
The problem occurred after I had restored Modem, 3rdmodem, Dtimage, etc using "Partition Backup & Restore" app. Then I restarted, and this problem occurred.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I had the exact same problem, i think its because modem partition is corrupted. I tried to extract modem.img from update.app and flash it by twrp dd command, its not working. so if some one with normal system can use dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p30 of=/sdcard/modem.img to dump a valid backup maybe it can be used to restore modem.

first contact dc-tool for free test, then buy 15 credits from the website. then download dc-phoenix tool, reboot phone to fastboot, using method 1 with correct update.app(using the wrong one, it will fail when trying to flash). when it finished, if the phone can boot normally, use vol + vol- power to force flash from sd:\dload\update.app. then the phone will be ok. if method 1 didn't work, then you may try method 2, i tried that, but my phone won't work with gsm sim if set as 4g card, only cdma card can.
detail info: https://www.dc-unlocker.com/DC-Phoenix-flash-repair-tutorial
if the phone is unbricked, they will require you to post a thread explaing how to unbrick the phone, send the thread link to them, you will get refund. i did that last week.
this is the thread i posted, you can see what i did. but remember try not to use method 2, you may lost serial number and gsm sim card may not be supported, i cant fix that.

In the link you will find Stock EMUI 8 Ramdisk, Recovery and System, as well as TWRP and a Kernel that fixes the possibility of losing the capacitive buttons. Download them into a folder on the root of your PC (for example C:\Temp)
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/88l72rypm6u1u94/AADtPyvsIFhyBl1mcJ5raTBZa?dl=0
I don't know what caused your boot to disappear, mine disappeared when i tried to unroot it from within SuperSU app (Big Mistake), but let's not be drastic just yet. You need Fastboot and ADB on your PC, turn off your phone, hold Volume - and connect the USB cable from the PC to the device. You should enter Fastboot mode. I hope your device is FRP unlocked as well.
Open a command line and input "fastboot devices" to make sure your device is connected
First let's try restoring Ramdisk, TWRP and Kernel:
Run "fastboot flash ramdisk STF-L09_ramdisk.img", then "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk stf_twrp_oreo.img" and finally "fastboot flash kernel B360_fix_kernel.img"
After that just run "fastboot reboot" and see if it boots or not... This should take care of your problem, if not, let's go drastic:
Turn off the device and plug it in fastboot mode again onto your PC.
On the command line run "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDISK.img" (this will flash stock recovery), and "fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img" (this will flash your system partition, in small bathes at a time, fresh.)
After that, just "fastboot reboot" and it should boot to your system (and without a factory reset!) If it bootloops for some reason, turn off the device, boot into stock recovery and wipe cache (or do a full factory reset, but that should not be necessary i think...)
Hope all this helps!

Everything flashes ok, no errors? What did you flash? Everything?
eRecovery is to rescue the device, that won't work with Oreo (at least not for me). The stock recovery you enter it by keeping the Vol + pressed and power up the device (just as TWRP), you can enter it? And it gives error when wiping the cache?

The only explanation i see is that the EMUI8 you were using has something different from the one in OldDroid's thread... On mine i did exactly what i told you, those files are the ones i used on mine as well.
Right now you have everything stock right? Can you try to flash one of the Treble Roms? Either AOSP or RR-O?
You just have to download them (they're a system.img file) and run the "fastboot flash system system.img" command, go to recovery and factory reset. Your device should boot.
If everything fails, the only hope i see if to go to OldDroid's thread - https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/how-to/stf-l09c432-how-to-install-oreo-h9-t3707729 and download the files, and follow the instructions on the OP to rollback to Nougat.

Same here, I just have access to eRecovery and fastboot mode
I was on the last version (oreo) and I wanted root my phone so I have unlock bootloader and install twrp but after twrp install in the wipe my internal stockage was empty and when I wanted install supersu I have some error like failed to mount: data, failed to mount: cache, ect..
but I still had access to my phone
Except that I had to go through the eRecovery every time so I tried to look at the side of my errors mount and I tried unbrick with the software Huawei Multi Tool and images of a rom stock publish on the forum except that I had even more access to my phone but I no longer have the errors mount.. With Huawei Multi Tool I have try the recovery option but nothing, now I don't know what make
Hi everyone I tried all the tools given into this thread but no success, it seems like a big lost challenge
Tell us more..
so you were on oreo or nougat before brick ?
and now the nougat's service repair dload firmware are not working ?
how do you get bricked, what did you do just before ?
Yeah never see a sht like that, I guess we have to send our phones to a huawei repair center..
Ok you were on oreo emui8.

Huawei P20 Briked?

Hi there
I think my phone is briked. I wantet to downgrade my phone to the 108 version becaus there was android auto working.
So i tried to flash the System.img from the 108 Software. I tried 2 different:
http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=ANE-lx1&firmware_page=0
and the Middle east from the thread here.
Id did flash over fastboot, but after every start the Build number was still on the 112 Firmware.
So i tried the Trebel ASOP, RR and LOS. ASOP Booted but had only forceclose on every service. RR and LOS did not work.
Then i tried to flash the ramdisk, recovery, vendor kernel etc from the update.app from the 108 Firmware. No my phone is briked.
I tried to flash eveyrthing from the .112 updateapp from the Official thread but nothing happend.
Then i tried to flash every possible .img file from the .112 app but most of them gave "Error Command not allowed"
So here i Am. Bootlooping phone and i dont know what else to do.
Since the beginning i could flash every system.img but it still was on the 112 Build and suddenly it bricked. I cant get to the 112 Version back with flashing system.img because it bootloops. Same for Treble and the newest 126 Version or the old 108 Build.
The only thing booting is ASOP Treble but i cant navigate coz of the 1000 of forceclosed errors.
I formated the userpartition as i was asked from Huawei, and bevore i did those installations i did a fullwipe with EMUI.
The Recovery cant connect to the server, and yeah.. i dont know what to do next. ofc i have unlocked bootloader. I bought the Phone in Switzerland with Dual Sim. ANE-LX1.
Does anyone have another idea?
Cheers
EDIT:
After 10000 billions klicks i managed to get through the treble wizzard, even when the com.android.phone has stopped is comming every second.
At the Moment im in the About Phone Screen and i see this: (I am in the newest ASOP Treble SU with gapps)
Model: ANE-LX1
Android Version 8.1
Baseband: unknown
Kernel Version 4.4.23+ (gcc version 4.9x 20150123 (prerelease) (GCC))
Fri Mar 9 09:51:47 CST 2018
Build Number ANE-LX1 8.0.0.112(c432) <------- WTF ?!?
I hope this informations is something to work with.
SIM CARD is not readable.
Edit2:
I connected it to HI SUit. It says my device running properly on the .112 Version (WTF i got Treble installed)
I cant connect anything. How the hell can i get rid of this ****ing wong Build number??
Same for Checking Updates. .112 should be newest (its not its 126) Any ideas?
Edit3:
Can only Flash with fastboot. Twrp cant mount the partitions. Trying to installing the zip or adb sideload gives me an error code or command not allowed :\
i think the best way is
download a FULL-Update for your build
https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/help/huawei-honor-firmware-download-t3790327
read this https://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...flash-t3778085
if you understand and have the know how : good luck
with this way i have my Ho9L reflash to stock-rom
you have to know what you're doing
use Magisk (search inside xda the thread)
this work by me better as SuperSU (with less problem's)
use this twrp, it's work WITH encryption
ttps://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-lite/development/recovery-testing-t3783587
if you understand what i am write - you can reset your phone to "delivered-state" and beginning by zero (initial-setting's) and
what ever you flash - you have a chance to reset your phone
first look on bootloader-screen if
- bootloader unlocked
- FRP unlock
THIS is essential !
last tip: let the fingers from custom-rom if this not expressly build for OREO
OREO is other as NOUGAT ! very different !
Relock your bootloader before trying an Erecovery...
please try this :
- download full update rom for your device, extract the .APP files using HuaweiUpdateExtractor
- boot into fastboot by press and hold Volume Down and plug in usb cable into your pc and your phone, hold it until it boot into fastboot
- do this :
fastboot flash kernel kernel.img
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img
fastboot flash recovery_vbmeta recovery_vbmeta.img
fastboot flash recovery_vendor recovery_vendor.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
- reboot your device and hold Volume Up and Volume Down to get it boot into eRecovery and do Wipe Cache Partitions and then do Factory Data Reset, and reboot again
- let it boot normally, and see what happen next, i can't remember for sure because it's been so long i unbricked my Nova 2s with this method. there are 2 possibility, you'll boot into system normally, or it will boot into eRecovery again and there is an option Download Latest Version And Recovery and you can choose that, of course you should have connection to internet via wifi.
please report back if you have difficulties.

Hi there, if you have TWRP, you could flash system and vendor using TWRP. boot into TWRP, choose install, choose use image file, and flash system.img to system, and vendor.img to vendor.

if you could, please provide screenshot so i can see it more clearly.
after you flashing the rom, one thing you must do is to format the data and cache through emui erecovery, as long as you're not format the data and cache successfully, the rom will not works properly.
for another reference, please refer to my other post here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...0-pro-help-t3776050/post76916307#post76916307

Hi,
this guide is two years old, if you want to recover your phone, download Service ROM from androidhost.ru website, and flash it using dload method .
Which EMUI version are you running? Your region is C605 ?

Correct, my region is 605. I already downloaded the latest version available for download on that page which is 8.1.
Before my phone went into brick, it had version 9.1
And bring those two update.app

For 9.1 you can download
https://androidhost.ru/2bCG
Unpack .zip archive , find dload file and simply transfer it to the SD card, without unpacking it! (instructions can be found in ReleaseDoc folder).
Turn off your phone and flash FW using three button combo.
Note: Service ROM L-29 contains both version - L-29 & L-09 .

I struggled so hard to download the file, and to my surprise it does not include the software version for the L-09, only for the L-29
Are there any risks if I try to install version 8.1?
Another thing, the Huawei p20 does not have a micro sd slot, I guess I should do it through a USB OTG?

Are you sure?
I'm really sorry, but most of the packages are universal.

It may brick your phone definitively.

Okay, I definitely don't get the 9.1 for Eml-09 for free.
So last query (I hope), what is less risky, install Rom 8.1 which is for my region and exact model, or install Rom 9.1 with my region but for model L-29 or install a Rom 9.1 for my model but with a different region?
Thank you for your support.

L29 EMUI 9.1 C605. Even if it succeeds the phone will not work correctly.
Most probably you will get the wrong model or in build number "system_0.46 (xxxx)" . HiSuite will not recognize your device (and no OTA update).
