I have factory reset my phone and downloaded the update, but it fails when installing. I see a large "!". What's odd is when doing the factory reset, it pout me in the menu driven recovery. The one where I have to use the volume buttons to move up and down the menu to preform the factory reset.
Is this the problem?
Any way to load the factory recovery back?
thanks
Gonna need a little more info. Were you rooted? Have a custom rom?

Anybody know how to enter stock recovery? button combination?
Ive tried power on plus up, and power on plus down. I would just flash CWM and make it easy, but i might be returning the phone to tmobile for my screen bleed soon and want the phone to remain stock for now.
SO anyone know how to get into stock recovery?
On the dev forum there's an image of the stock recovery. Sorry i'm on the phone
why? what are you trying to do? if you never flashed cwm, vol. down and power will do a factory reset. as of now, there is no way to enter the stck recovery. just a factory reset.

Not true.
I posted a way to get to stock recovery
Download rom manager
Go to settings, SD and phone storage then unmount phone storage
Now
Go to rom manager and reboot into recovery then it takes you to a screen when you hit home and it shows the blue stock recovery screen....
Not sure how to make selections though

So after following the instructions for installing a new ROM on this thread-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1858298 my phone rebooted to the Paranoid Android 2.+ icon. It glows various colors and that's it... Is it completely bricked or soft bricked? And what can I do at this point to salvage the phone/ reset it???

UPDATE: So it appears that it is softbricked. Booting into CWM recovery is available (power+Vol up+ home button) but wipe data/factory reset boots into JB now. Everything else seems ok thus far... will update if any other issues come up.

Were you unlocked prior to flashing Paranoid Android or just rooted? Your post is rather confusing, is it still messed up or is it fixed? Could you clarify what steps you took to get into this situation? Were you on a stock rom or custom rom before this, etc.?

I have not flashed a custom recovery or tried rooting yet, so stock everything and my storage available is wrong.
How to fix this?
Thanks

Go into the stock recovery, clear cache and then factory reset

Revert to factory settings from the menu or wipe data from the recovery. You need the stock recovery

My stock recovery is broken, I am now doing factory reset from settings. Now I have to figure out why the stock recovery is broken, showing dead android with red triangle. Tried fastbooting the stock recovery again but same result.

Try
fastboot format cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
To get into the stock recovery you need to hit vol up when you see the dead android

Ok so factory reset from settings fixed the storage issue, thanks all.
But nothing fixes my stock recovery, this is so frustrating. Tried your suggestion with the cache and boot.im, even rebooted bootloader and tried and then even tried fastbooting the recovery.img again but nothing. No combination of any button pushes works.

In recovery, hold power button and press vol up. That is what jd meant.
i have the same issue with the storage and stock recovery. followed the suggestion above (formatted cache and flashed boot.img) but did a factory reset from settings (not from stock recovery). This fixed the storage issue but stock recovery is still broken.

I thought my recovery was broken too (never kept my phone stock long enough to see it...) but you just have to push power, volume up, and volume down at the same time to make it show up.

stupid freaking company.......
I got the update OTA few minutes ago, downloaded the update then applied and now my phone is not working anymore....
All i get is iu system stopped working
i have a nexus 5 stock non rooted
i tried to reboot the phone several times
Also tried volume down and power, but the only options i have is:
recovery mode (wich do nothing).
restart bootloader(wich do nothing)
start
or exit
Im not even able to go back in my options to do a factory reset
help me please and fast before i throw this phone into the wall
EDIT:
after calming down a little, i found how to do a factory reset in the recovery mode, phone is formating /data atm
You can factory reset by booting to recovery. So go back to the bootloader (Volume down and Power). Then you should see an android with an exclamation mark and the words "No Command". From there, hold the power button & tap Volume UP one time. That'll boot you into recovery mode.
Now I know performing a factory reset from within android will completely wipe the phone, I'm not sure if it's the same with a stock recovery. So if I were you I would ADB pull the contents of your /sdcard before performing the factory reset. After that just use the volume keys to navigate to perform factory reset and power key to select.
It also might be worth a shot to only wipe cache the first time you go to recovery and then reboot and see if that worked. If not, pull your data to PC and then factory reset.
Calm down more first

thanks,
well i went directly to factory reset, we'll see.
when i changed from my n4 to n5, i had a backup and i also have a backup from my email account so i guess i wont loose everything
the only "customisation" i did was to change some icons on my N5, i dont understand why i got that iu system error
Sure, no problem.
Hopefully the factory reset fixes it for you. If not and you need some more help installing the factory images via fastboot, just holler.
I tried rooting my brand new Mate 9. I unlocked the bootloader, but the wipe that followed failed for some reason. In the eRecovery there's no option to Wipe Data / Factory Reset and when I try to log in at the start screen, the keyboard is not showing up, so I can't even log in. Tried wiping through ADB, but it doesn't even see the device. Any other way to wipe it, so I can proceed with installing TWRP and rooting this sucker. Thanks in advance!
You can boot to fastboot and flash twrp.
While the usb plugged in,hold volume down and power, when the phone vibrate remove power button and keep pressing volume down.
For stock recovery, remove the usb,hold volume up and power and when you see the logo, remove power and keep pressing volume up.
You can copy a keyboard apk on ur sd card and install when you are in the system,just skip the log in screens.
Thanks! I managed to install TWRP and boot to it to do a factory reset, thinking that it will resolve my login issue. Now I'm stuck in bootloop.
And if I try to boot into TWRP again by pressing Volume Up + Volume Down + Power it boots me into eRecovery that wants to perform an update, which after 5% fails saying: The update package does not exist.
So I can't even get back to TWRP nor the system.
Any advice to resolve this?

well to boot into recovery just use vol up+power and release once u see the huawei logo.btw when your factory reset fail during unlocking BL you can manually boot into the system and reset thru settings again.
Never do factory reset via twrp. It does not support huawei's data partition.
To avoid bootloop, just flash stock recovery and do factory reset with it. You need flash additional stock zips to restore additional apps and themes.
I had exactly the same problem as you. After rooting and start wipe, the factory reset seems had not finished well and the phone booted to lock screen with password field, but without keyboard...
Only procure that worked for me was rebranding the phone and installing another full room using Funky Huawei. Yes I know it is a paid service but I believe you will be happy to know it can help you.
Good luck
