Hi Mutahhar, I’m from Peru, my P9 Lite’s already fucked, I tried to update it to Nougat but irresponsibly it ended bricked and with bootloader blocked (I don’t have the box where the information is to request the code), I called Huawei and they told me that they can repair it and that it will cost me the repair. It will take time (half a month) to send it to the office, check it, fix it and send it back to me. I need it as soon as possible and that’s why I want to burn all the chances and fix it myself with your help, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
I used another non supported rom that’s why my phone is on boot loop.
Keep in mind unlocking bootloader will void your warranty, if Huawei is doing it for free go for it.
Otherwise CLICK HERE to see unbrick guide for p9 lite. Follow all steps and use firmware files for your model
But in my case, bootloader is still locked and I can’t get the code to unlock it because I don’t know my serial number
Well i have paid service to get unlock code without serial number
Will this work on the ATT version in Mexico VSN – L23C212B121?
No you cannot, either debrand (warranty void) or wait for ATT release
Thank you
