Very good androids, this time I come to teach you how root Android on the Huawei P9 Lite with Android Nougat (7.0) in an easy and effective way.
Since I have hardly seen tutorials in Spanish regarding how to root this new version of Android, today I proceed to make one where I explain in great detail the procedure to follow. In advance notice that This process is not complicated if the steps that are explained are strictly followed. Let's get started!
Warning
- Following this process involves a risk, from now on I say that if this tutorial is followed step by step there should be no problem. Neither me nor Androidsis is responsible for any damage you may cause to your terminal.
- When unlocking the bootloader we lose the guarantee, so I always recommend doing it when we are out of it.
- Before doing anything, try to make a backup since the following process does a factory reset and erases all data from internal memory.
Request your code
To request our code What we have to do is go to the page that I leave here, it will require us to register in order to request it, click on Download and immediately afterwards Unlock Bootloader. In this order:
- Model number. (It can be found in About phone. Important: Put HUAWEI VNS-LXX, all in uppercase so there is no conflict)
- Serial number. (Can be found in About phone> Status)
- IMEI. (It is achieved by dialing on the dialer / numeric keypad * # # 06, if you have problems on the page when entering the IMEI and you have dual sim, first try one and then another)
- Product ID. (It is achieved with this code * # * # * # * # 1357946)

(Once you have the 16-digit unlock code, copy it and keep it under lock and key)
Enable developer options
Go to the developer options (About device> Press several times on the build number). Check the box for OEM Unlocking and USB debuggingThis step is important since you could make your terminal useless, even having to take it to the technician. Most of the brickeos are for not having these options activated.
Click on About of the phone

Click several times on the build number and the developer options will be enabled

We access the developer options

We enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging

Now we can proceed to unlock our bootloader for later flash recovery and install root.
Unlock your bootloader
I leave you this auto driver installer, unlocking tool, Recovery + Root (thanks to Eloy Gómez and colleagues from XDA).
- Unzip the files in a folder that you have on hand, we execute the command window and we install the universal drivers and HiSuite, we follow the instructions indicated in the command console. Will ask us access in fastboot mode, we turn off our terminal, once off press Volume- and connect our terminal to the pc. (It's weird, yes, but that's the way Kirin 650 processors do.)

- When entering our unlock code, the terminal will show a window as is, we move to YES with the volume + button and confirm with the power button. It will perform a factory reset automatically and reboot.

- Now every time we start our terminal, even after doing root, that warning screen will appear, wanting to tell us that our terminal has the bootloader unlocked, press Power and the phone will start normally.

Once the terminal is powered on, save the SuperSu 2.79 file that we have previously extracted from the zip on the SD and in the internal memory just in case the recovery does not read us one of the two memories.
Flash recovery
Then we have to flash the Recovery, we turn off our terminal and start it in fastboot mode As we have said before, inside the unlock folder press the Control + Shift keys and the right mouse button, then on Open command window here

- To know if our terminal is detected by our pc we write the following command: fastboot devices (you will get your serial number)
- To flash the recovery write the following command: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.0-2-hi6250 (It will flash the recovery)
Once this is done, it only remains to flash the SuperSu 2.79 file through Recovery and We will already have root privileges on our Huawei P9 Lite with Nougat.
We can check it by downloading from the Play Store, Root Checker which verifies if we have root privileges.
