Hello, I managed to install stock rom to my phone, in the huawei eRecovery there is no factory reset option, instead it only gives me "shutdown", "reboot" and "Download the lastest version and recovery" (which doesn't work btw, it gives "getting package info failed" error). For most people I have seen it work differently giving them option to wipe/factory reset their device. Please help me to get the reset option.
edit:
I installed the PRA-LX1C02B147 firmware and it seems to work.
My model is pra-lx1 with unlocked bootloader.

Hello Everyone,
I tried to revive my P8 Lite 2017 and it's impossible. I followed every guide I found but anything work for me.
I have access to bootloader also recovery.
erecovery not working, fail when try to download.
recovery not working factory reset stock at 99%
bootloader I can flash but maybe i didn't find the right firmware.
The version I had was PRA-LX140B105.
More information.
I deleted some picture so I tried to recover this photo so I used undeleter, diskdigger and these app said if you're rooted you have more change to find things.
I rooted the phone and when I used this apps, wanted to come back to factory so I flashed supposedly a stock rom from firmware finder huawei. I flashed boot, recovery and system. The first time I boot stuck on your device is booting now, after that i swith off my phone and tried recovery I do wipe cache also wipe data and factory reset then again 99%. I swith off again my phone start again the factory reset by itselft and then say completed, phone reboot and then i see the animation and stuck on huawei logo after that reboot by itselft and then open erecovery. Again I Turn off phone try to swith on and stuck on your device is booting now..
I don't know what more I can do.
I tried to put update.app inside dload folder in sd card but it fails
flash TWRP, restore this https://mega.nz/#!vspAXIZI!yHj-2n9DuGvb-ZdsemOgw4k3vQTMy7CJXIGFAhJlplo in TWRP, flash stock recovery, update to the newest firmware, do a factory reset and flash a recovery of your choice.
to get the backup to work, first create a random backup in TWRP then go to TWRP/BACKUPS/*random numbers* and put the downloaded backup there

You can use DC-Phoenix to restore your device.
Hey... how can I help you man?
Hi there!
I have a P9 (EVA-L09) on my desk, which is in an inconsistent state. Meaning, that it in original condition it was a C02 with German Vodafone branding. Then the owner flashed some Nougat beta (can't remember which one), wasn't happy with Nougat and wanted to go back to MM by using the official rollback package provided by Huawei. The dload update failed and then he tried to flash different versions stock roms (can't remember either), leaving it in a constant bootloop. So first thing i tried was flashing TWRP. It boots up, but the touchscreen is not working. I think this is because some of the partitions where destroyed (firmware e.g.). So I flashed the C432B182 recovery and tried to dload the C432B182 firmware. The update process stops at 5%, maybe because in the meantime the device was converted to a C900? So I tried to get some C02 firmwares. The oldest I could get was C02B339. dload started the update process and failed at nearly 100% with the "Software install failed" message - no additional information. Because I have only fastboot and no adb connection, I can't rebrand to C432 (only adb shell in twrp is running, but I can't access the internal memory from there - or can I?). So these are the hard facts and I don't see any way to get a working rom on the P9. So, is there anyone with another idea? Would be great. Thanks!
Ok, I got it working again. Here are my steps, just in case anyone gets in the same situation:
1. Flash Stock recovery through fastboot, extracted from C432B182
2. Boot to Stock recovery with Vol Up + Power, it should start
3. Wipe cache and try to factory reset - won't work
4. Put C432B182 UPDATE.APP in dload folder on SD card
5. Tried Vol Up + Down force flash, but it did'nt work, so I wanted to get back into recovery by starting with VOL Up, and voila - it started flashing the B182 from SD card, BUT says failed at 99%
6. After that, boot into recovery again and see that factory reset now works
7. After factory reset restart phone and enjoy your unbricked P9 on C900B182. From here you can change to C432 with the known manuals to get the latest updates
Got official notification and have installed Pie (9.0.1.163) on my VTR-L09C432 P10.
Downloaded the Full OTA (9.0.1.163), extracted the RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img, patched with Magisk 7.1.1 and flashed using fastboot to the recovery_ramdisk partition. When rebooted with Vol+ have root. Played around with Pie and have decided to revert back to Oreo.
HiSuite (v9.0.3.300_OVE) did offer me rollback to 8.0.0.365. So I have decided to pursue this option. The firmware download went OK (100%), the programing went OK (100%) and the phone rebooted, as said the popup, but ... it was still on Pie as before.
Decided to try to "upgrade" via eRecovery. It wasn't able to determine and download any package. So I tried factory reset. No error, but it seems to do nothing. The phone rebooted and the situation is: Pie works, Magisk reports root 18.1 and root apps work.
From this moment I am unable to enter fastboot. The phone just boots normally with Magisk root. As I have just written eRecovery is present but is useless (can't download an upgrade package and can'r factory reset).
Advice?
Should I try writing from a term using dd the extracted RECOVERY_RANDISK.img and ERECOVERY_RAMDISK.img ? This way will loose root (Magisk) but don't know if it "resolve" access to fastboot and "fix" eRecovery.
EDIT:
No reply so decided to go ahead with what I thought was happening. I didn't know that a firmware upgrade (or downgrade) needs recovery to complete. I thought erecovery was the key.
So when I used HiSuite to rollback to Oreo what happened was it downloaded the Oreo firmware, uploaded it to the phone, prepared for a firmware flash and did a reboot. The firmware downgrade was supposed to happen in recovery but since the recovery code was changed by Magisk the flashing was never happening.
The same when from erecovery I tried to do a factory reset. Seems that erecovery just prepares things but recovery code does the actual reset. And once again I was observing that nothing was happening. The phone was simply root booting exactly as the Magisk code is supposed to do.
So I just flashed (from a term) the original recovery_ramdisk.img. After reboot got the factory reset welcome screen.
Of course got back fastboot.
Hope this can be of of help someone is a similar situation
Dude can you please guide us how to actually use DD command.
edit: I did this a different way. much easier & safer for less experienced users.
1. Open magisk manager. At the bottom of the first screen there is a button "UNINSTALL". Press uninstall & click "restore images".
2. Magisk will remove itself and restore your original boot image. Worked for me
Hi all,
after resetting with TWRP my (perfect working) P9 Plus Rooted with VIE-L09C432B370, got new system without keyboard... I have only google voice assistant as keyboard (I read somewhere that my reset was too strong :-/ )
I tried to reinstall the Stock Firmware placing the VIE-L09C432B370 Full OTA MF file: UPDATE.APP into "dload" folder of sd card and powering ON with <Vol-Up> <Vol-Down> <Power> pressed but I got the big exclamation mark with the message "Software install failed"
I do not know how to reinstall the full stock Huawei firmware in another way; Android Version is not important... B370 (Android 7.0) is enought and root/twrp are not so necessary (but appreciated)... the important is having back my P9 Plus working.
The TWRP installed is the 3.1.1-1 and the "Fastboot & Rescue Mode" is working with the messages "PHONE Unlocked" "FRP Unlock"
Can someone help me to flash a working stock firmware?
Thanks in advance
(and sorry for my english)

Solved!
with the special help of a very kind person.
The only way to flash the full update.zip was flashing the HuRUpdater as indicated into the thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
After flashing (the TWRP was replaced by the stock recovery), it was necessary entering in stock recovery and wipe both "data/factory" and "cache partition"
The system went up, un rooted and clean...
BootLoader remain unlocked
Hi i have this p9 plus vie-l29, i unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp and root, everything worked perfect until i found a backup online and restore it using twrp. Since then, P9 shows "device has failed verification and may not work properly".
I boot to erecovery, but i got this error: "getting package info failed", I tried to flash again twrp from fastboot and resccue mode, but not working because i did a factory reset and cannot activate usb debugging. It still has stock recovery but I only have 3 options, reboot, clear cache and factory data reset.
Can you give me a solution to this please? If i try dload method from sdcard, should work?
UPDATE: So, I tried dload method, did not worked for me. Now phone is in service center, I hope it can be fixed.
